bug as the C code. :-(

no get function was defined, the property's doc string was
inaccessible.  This was because the test for prop_get was made
*before* the test for a NULL/None object argument.

Also changed the property class defined in Python in a comment to test
for NULL to decide between get and delete; this makes it less Python
but then, assigning None to a property doesn't delete it!

This closes SF bug #490823.

Using grid methods on ScrolledText widgets does not
work as expected. It either fails to pack a widget, or
can even cause Tk to lock up.

The problem is that the .grid method is being called on
the text widget, not the frame widget. This can lead
to the well-known lockup in Tk when a frame's children
are managed by both the pack and grid managers. Even
if it doesn't lock up, the frame is never placed within
the intended widget.

Program fragment:
>>> import ScrolledText
>>> s = ScrolledText.ScrolledText()
>>> s.grid(row=0, column=0, rowspan=2)

The following patch uses the same hack to copy the
'grid' and 'place' geometry manager methods to the
ScrolledText instance as is already used for the 'pack'
manager.

[ #409430 ] pydoc install broken

The new menu initialization code would also add the SIOUX menus if a (frozen) Python program had installed its own menubar previously. We now guard against this, with a bit of a hack: FrameWork uses the same Menu ID as Sioux, and the init code checks that the text in the menu is "About SIOUX" before replacing it.

PyString_FromString():
  Since the length of the string is already being stored in size,
  changed the strcpy() to a memcpy() for a small speed improvement.

[ #477371 ] build_scripts can use wrong #! line

The module generator now tells its object generators about the module name (through the new setmodulename() method). If the module name has been set the object generators output it as part of the tp_name field for the object type.

work with Mac OS X Aqua-Tk, all nicely within ifdefs.

The process is not for the faint of heart, though: you need to download
and install the (alfa) Aqua-Tk, obtain a few needed X11 headers from
somewhere else and then everything builds. To run scripts using Tkinter
you must build with --enable-framework, build Python.app in Mac/OSX
and run your Tkinter scripts with that. Then, about half the tests in
Demo/tkinter work (or at least do something).

Checking this in anyway because it shouldn't break anything, and newer
versions of Aqua-Tk will streamline the process.

Bugfix candidate.

type.__module__ behavior.

This adds the module name and a dot in front of the type name in every
type object initializer, except for built-in types (and those that
already had this).  Note that it touches lots of Mac modules -- I have
no way to test these but the changes look right.  Apologies if they're
not.  This also touches the weakref docs, which contains a sample type
object initializer.  It also touches the mmap test output, because the
mmap type's repr is included in that output.  It touches object.h to
put the correct description in a comment.

The OSS Programmer's Reference (www.4front-tech.com)
states:

*Setting Sampling Parameters

There are three parameters which affect the sound
quality (and therefore memory and bandwidth
requirements) of sampled audio data. These are:

** sample format (sometimes called number of bits)
** number of channels (mono or stereo), and
** sampling rate (speed)

NOTE:

It is important to always set these parameters in the
above order. Setting sampling rate before the number
of channels doesn't work with all devices.

open_http():
    In urllib.py library module, URLopener.open_https()
    returns a class instance of addinfourl() with its
    self.url property missing the protocol.

    Instead of "https://www.someurl.com", it becomes
    "://www.someurl.com".
